Report Highlights

Consumers are becoming more appearance conscious, with 7% more global consumers attaching importance to looking good in 2011 compared to 2008. Visual Culture has therefore not only withstood the pressure of the economic crisis but appears to be becoming an increasingly defining trend of today's global personal care landscape.

Datamonitor research shows that one fifth of consumers do not decide which haircare brands to purchase until they are in-store. For this sizable segment of consumers that make their product purchasing decisions at the point of sale, in-store marketing (including product claims) plays a particularly important role in guiding their product choice.

With as many as two in five consumers attaching importance to personalized haircare benefits (compared to 20% who do not), it is clear that individualistic desires will see haircare consumers being drawn to products offering a more intimate and personalized brand experience moving forwards.
